About

Welcome to Mini Piccolini! I am so glad you are here!

Mini Piccolini is all about the good life as a family with small children. How to live, love, eat, travel, play and learn better together.

I’m Mina and I live with my husband Sumit and our three little minis: four year old Alec, two and a half-year old Louis (like “Vuitton” – silent ‘s’), and baby Léonie, in Stockholm Sweden. We live a very urban life in our flat in our awesome neighborhood in Stockholm but also spend as much time in the country when we can. Life with three such small children is a constant balancing act – very intense at best, and really really hard a lot of the time. But we have fabulous kids who definitely keep us laughing.

I’m so glad you have found my little corner of the web! Right now we are just trying to settle into life as a family of five. I’m always planning and organizing, trying to fit our busy messy life into our super urban apartment and trying to make our home as beautiful as it can be. We are figuring out the discipline thing with our little pre-schoolers and trying to keep them stimulated, activated and harmonious, and at the same time going through all the new baby sleep-training etc with little Léonie. And always – meal planning.

If you have ideas or suggestions for me – please get in touch! I would love to hear from you!

Please feel free to share things you found on Mini Piccolini on your own blog or Facebook, but please keep it to just one or two pictures and link back to the original post.

Ah, see now I am jealous! I had a chance to visit Stockholm and fell in love. I have to admit, I wasn’t very excited to go at first – it was in November and I thought it would be too cold to enjoy anything but it was beautiful.
We traveled the length of Sweden, taking a plane from Stockholm to Gothenburg, and then took a car up to a little resort town on the water somewhere.
One of the friendliest countries I have ever visited.
